  • - Secrets of Eleusis
    af Carl A. P. Ruck
    153,95 kr.

    In the ancient world, men and women joined cults known as Mysteries to unite with the deities of the otherworld and achieve eternal life. The most important of the Mysteries existed for two millennia at the village of Eleusis. Its deities were Demeter and Persephone, interchangeable in their roles as mother and daughter. The initiations and other rituals of this goddess-based cult were a profound secret: divulging information was punishable by death. For centuries, scholars have probed the secrets of the Eleusinian Mysteries and kykeon, its sacramental Eucharist a sacred drink containing psychoactive chemicals similar to those in LSD. Their discoveries have been buried in the arcane language of alchemy, the occult sciences, and secret societies. Here, in prose accessible to all readers, Carl Ruck unravels the Mysteries, revealing the awesome powers of the goddesses, as well as the pagan underpinnings of Western culture.

    Marijuana is a palliative, an analgesic with anti-inflammatory properties it alleviates pain without addictive effects experienced with narcotics. You might think of marijuana as being something like an herbal aspirin. In fact, it was used in folk medicines like aspirin for thousands of years to soothe aches and pains before aspirin was discovered. When hearing marijuana most of us call up an image of recreational smoking to get high. Being in the high-state actually promotes wellness. Being high feels good and feeling good encourages healing and homeostasis.Most of us, however, are less familiar with the other ways in which one can use marijuana as a remedy for aliments that diminish quality of lifelike aching muscles from over exertion or spinal misalignment, for example. Actually the list of aliments that can be soothed with medical marijuana is quite long. It is important to emphasize that marijuana does not cure; rather it soothes and alleviates and in so doing we feel better and heal faster. This comes from its palliative qualities.Marijuanas palliative qualities can be delivered in a variety of ways: smoking, eating, rubbing into the skin. Each of these delivery methods has special benefits, which are compared and contrasted in MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES. In addition to the delicious foods described, MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES tells how to extract the beneficial chemicals from the herbits essenceto make tinctures and ointments good for massaging aching muscles, soothing bug bites.MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES offers many easy, delicious, nutritious recipes, including desserts of all kinds, breads, main courses, and elixirs. It also teaches principlessuch as using butter to extract the essenceso that you can experiment with your own recipe development. What fun!Most cookbooks tell you how to cook from scratch, which is great if youre a cook and you have enough time. But many us arent cooksyet we would like to incorporate marijuana herbals in our menu. MARIJUANA RECIPES AND REMEDIES is unique in that it shows how to use inexpensive, off-the-shelf, ready-made mixes you can find at the corner store to make some fabulous cannabis cuisine.

    What Are Terpenes?Terpenes (pronounced tur-peens), or terpenoids, are aromatic metabolites found in the oils of all plants. Terpenes are chemical oils produced by plants that create the unique flavor, scent and effect of herbs, fruit and flowers. When smelling a flower or herb, your nose actually registers the unique terpene profile of the plant. More than 30,000 unique terpenes have been identified in plants, animals, microbes, and fungi, which create aromas and flavors. Terpenes help carry out biological functions, can serve as vitamins, pheromones, and hormones as well as influence the immune system. When combined, terpenes produce complex profiles. For example, the herb lavender smells pleasant, tastes slightly sweet and floral, and has a relaxing effect.Terpenes are secreted along with cannabinoids in the flower's sticky resin glands. They are responsible for cannabis' smell, flavor and contribute to its overall sensory effect. Terpenes give the Blueberry cannabis strain its berry smell, Sour Diesel its skunky smell, and Lavender its floral aroma. Over 100 different terpenes have been identified in the cannabis plant, and every strain tends toward a unique terpene type and composition. Terpenes play a key role in differentiating the effects of various cannabis strains. Terpenoid production evolved over time in plants, including cannabis, to attract pollinators and to act as defense compounds. Female cannabis plants produce glandular trichomes, which are glands that look like small hairs or growths that protrude from the flowers and leaves. Trichomes house crucial compounds, including cannabinoids (such as THC and CBD), flavonoids, and terpenes.Terpenes and cannabinoids interact synergistically to promote relaxation and stress-relief, while others promote focus and acuity. The effect profile of a given terpene can change when combined with other terpenes and cannabinoids in a phenomenon known as the entourage effect. Research suggests that terpenes offer medicinal value as they mediate our body's interaction with therapeutic cannabinoids.Technology has developed a method of distilling terpenes into highly concentrated forms that can be used individually or in conjunction with other terpenes. Terpene isolates are commonly used in cosmetic products, incense, food flavorings, perfumes, natural medicines and a wide variety of everyday products.Pure, isolated terpenes are highly concentrated and may pose health risks if consumed or applied to the skin with out proper dilution. Working with terpenes is shaman-like, calling on an understanding the terpene to safely unlocking their amazing potential. For instance, certain varietals are more potent than others, meaning that one dilution method cannot be applied to every type of terpene. Achieving balance can be tricky but well worth the personal learning needed.

  • - Sex, Drugs, and the Church
    af David C. A. Hillman
    163,95 kr.

    ORIGINAL SIN is an investigation of sacred Christian mysteries of antiquity to show the historic link between the use of drugs and ritualized sex embedded in Western religion.ORIGINAL SIN is an investigation of the first acts of pedophilia within the Christian church. It is a book about the promotion and defense of child rape as a sacred Christian mystery.The Wests most venerated social, religious and political ideals stem from a cultural war waged against the human body. ORIGINAL SIN reveals the origin of this war.Using the influence of the first Christian Emperors, and the moral authority of their political organization, powerful bishops of the early Church promoted the performance of sacred mysteries in which young children were starved, drugged, and sodomized. In ceremonies meant to test their purity"e;, exorcist priests victimized young children from the ranks of the orphans and homeless who populated the large cities of the ancient world.ORIGINAL SIN focuses on the writings of Christian priests themselves and the pagans who condemned their immoral activities. It shows that Church actively promoted and defended the rape of children, and that such crimes were present from the very earliest days of Christianity.ORIGINAL SIN draws from ancient internal documents, written by venerated church leaders - written in Latin - who actively promoted the rape and molestation of children. Bishops, monks and priests of the early Church successfully defended themselves from legal prosecution for centuries. As the Roman public railed on priests for sexually exploiting children, the church leadership used its growing political influence to prevent any of the child rapists within the clergy from coming to justice.ORIGINAL SIN also traces the divine feminine voice through Western history. The potent combination of natural drugs and the feminine voice is the basis for western civilization. ORIGINAL SIN explores the foundation of western society as the product of a peculiar interaction chemical and biological forcesThe pagan world was aware of the sexual crimes committed against these orphans, and waged a lengthy campaign against the priests who perpetrated these rapes.Christian priests claimed that by sodomizing children, they were saving them from possession by the demons of the pagan religions. Christian theologians justified these acts of rape by pointing to some of the earliest writings of the apostles and even the acts of Jesus himself. Exorcist priests specifically victimized young children from the ranks of the orphans and homeless who populated the large cities of the ancient world. The pagan world was aware of the sexual crimes committed against these orphans, and waged a lengthy campaign against the priests who perpetrated these rapes.The Christian hierarchy claimed these children were being sexually tested in order to prevent them from being used in pagan rituals that required the same children to remain sexually inexperienced. Christian priests claimed that by sodomizing children, they were saving them from possession by the demons of the pagan religions.Christian theologians justified these acts of rape by pointing to some of the earliest writings of the apostles and even the acts of Jesus himself. In the early church, groups of Christians in Asia Minor even formed their own associations that claimed the performance of such acts was a means of assuring the salvation of both the victims and the perpetrators.The potent combination of natural drugs and the feminine voice is the basis for western civilization. ORIGINAL SIN explores the foundation of western society as the product of a peculiar interaction chemical and biological forces.Some early church fathers believed Jesus had several relationships with young boys. Prominent church leaders argued that the apostle Mark was aware of this when he wrote in his gospel that Jesus was arrested in the garden of Gethsemane in the presence of a naked teenage boy. --------Note: The material in Hillman's first book, CHEMICAL MUSE, and here in ORIGINAL SIN was part of His dissertation research. While they could find no flaws in the work, his dissertation committee was so outraged by the material that Hillman found in the ancient texts - written in Latin, which he reads fluently - that they refused to pass the dissertation or award the doctorate unless he deleted the material. He did so and published the material about the used of psilocybin mushrooms and the emergence of Western Civilization. ORIGINAL SIN reveals more of the forbidden information that Dr. Hillman was uncovered.Because of this work, Dr. Hillman has been "e;black balled"e; from academic classics - even though CHEMICAL MUSE has been widely acclaimed. He now teaches Latin in a private girls' school to inch out a living to support his wife and two children.What one author said about Hillman's discoveries and his expulsion from Classics.The role of psychoactive drugs has been airbrushed out of the conventional picture of Western civilization. The academics who have created this drug-free Greco-Roman world have found their nemesis in Dr. Hillmans The Chemical Muse. With clarity and directness the author gives us back a lost chapter of our Classical heritage and by doing so restores our understanding of this past.Richard Rudgley, author of Lost Civilizations of the Stone Age

    ANIMAL HOUSE ON ACID is a memoir by Beverly Potter, a neighbor of the most notorious housing unit on the face of the Earth. Barrington Hall, a large student-run co-op on the Southside of the University a few blocks off of Telegraph Avenue, was Berkeleys last outpost of the 60s. Barringtonians, as they called themselves, held fast to the culture of sex, drugs, and rock n roll long after it had ceased to be fashionable, and clung to the sanctity of individual expressioneven to the point of covering up not only illegal but genuinely harmful acts with a cloak of silence, know as Onngh Yonngh, which stated: Those who know, don't tell' those who tell, don't know.Inside Barrington Hall, youth rebellion never grew old, because each year it was replenished with a new crop of eighteen-year-olds, sorry to have missed the 60s and glad to find a small chunk of it still alive just down the street from Peoples Park on Dwight Way. Barrington became a victim of its own mythology: with a house culture dedicated to outrage, it eventually outraged all, even its natural allies.Established as a co-op in the 1930s, by 1980 Barrington had become a continuing disaster for the USCA [University Students Coop Association]. Known internationally for live punk rock, LSD parties called wine dinners featuring acid-spiked wine punch, open drug use, heroin use and over-doses, crashers and haven for under-age run-aways, activism and anarchy, raucous parties, kids going off the four-story roof, along with disputes with neighbors and investigations by the City Council. Barrington sapped the patience of everyone involved. Finally after a neighbor group took Barrington to arbitration, and three City investigations, and PACT - Parents and Children Together attempts to control the raucous behavior, Potter filed a lawsuit. Then the death threats rained down upon her.Barrington Hall was boarded up in March 1990 -- 24 years ago. Yet, its spirit and romance lives on. Today, in July 2014, there is a large memorial poster in the window of Rasputin Music on Telegraph Avenue honoring Barrington Hall, calling it a petri dish of early San Francisco Bay Area Punk Rock. [https://www.flickr.com/photos/wallyg/9583462218/]Dead Kennedys, Green Day, Primus and other popular Punk groups played regularly at Barrington. There are several chat sites developed to Barrington along with annual reunions. Les Claypool of the Punk group, Primus, wrote one of the many songs about Barrington.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNrTKhGbqi4]Barrington was known for its floor to ceiling murals through-out the building -- all four floors. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqMVyNq189o]Barringtonians routinely painted graffiti messages to and about Potter on the outside of the building, including "e;Beverly gives good head"e; which was listed in her lawsuit as a cause of action.ANIMAL HOUSE ON ACID is packed with side stories. One is about the dope book publishers suing the dope den. Sebastian Orfali and Beverly Potter, publishers of Ronin Publishing, which arose the ashes of the 1970s break-through And/Or Press, were neighbors -- literally under the windows of Barrington. When the media learned that Ronin (and And/Or before it) published marijuana and psychedelics subjects, a KCBS commentator remarked about Orfali, Isnt that the pot calling the kettle black?The 1989 photo featured in the Barrington Hall Wikipedia is 30 feet from Potter's house. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrington_Hall_(Berkeley,_California)]In 1990, Barrington Hall was to be closed for good. 18 students - "e;the holdovers"e; - refused to leave and were being evicted. March 3, 1990, a poetry reading escalated into a full blown riot -- with Berkeley Riot Squad trucks sweeping the streets and riot police swinging clubs. There was a 20 foot bonfire in front of the Haste Street entrance - and Potter's house.ANIMAL HOUSE ON ACID is Potter's memoir of a truly long, strange trip, which she tells in a scrapbook-like format, composed of local newspaper stories, City reports, incident notes, posters, photographs, stitched together with Potter's retelling of wild tales -- even by Berkeley standards.

    Throughout the ages, intelligent, affluent, ambitious, and just plain hot-to-trot humans have sought out aphrodisiacs everything from rhino horns to green M&Ms. Here, Timothy Leary argues that the true aphrodisiac is the mind. By knowing how to stimulate the most sensitive organ of all, the brain, readers can enrich their sex lives beyond their wildest dreams. Leary begins by telling his own coming-of-sexual-age story in typically witty fashion, then goes on to explore humanity's obsession with physical pleasure, digital activation of the erotic brain, and the fascination with cybersex. He explains how phones and computers allow perfect strangers to achieve amazing levels of intimacy and why telecommunicated sexual messages are now a standard courting technique for young people in industrial-urban societies. Ruminating on everything from sexual liberation to electronic foreplay, Leary offers a persuasive explanation of why the key to arousal is "e;all in your head."e;

    Death is increasingly on the agenda for baby boomers moving ever closer to it. Timothy Leary brings some startlingly fresh ideas to this topic.Fundamentally, he claims, we have been brainwashed by our institutions government, organized religion, the healthcare industry to accept death as an inevitable end. Leary argues instead that death is misunderstood, that we don't have to die, and that there are "e;commonsense alternatives."e; His theory rests on the transhumanist approach that says human beings are evolving into spiritual machines beings that are part human and part machine and eventually will not die as the term is commonly understood. Being fitted with machine parts like bionic knees is part of this process. And as we evolve through the cybernetic age, he says, we will gain new wisdom that broadens our definition of personal immortality and gene-pool survival the "e;postbiologic option of the information species."e;

    Severe, chronic pain affects at least 116 million Americans every year. But there are fewer than 4,000 pain specialists in the United States, and many insurers won’t cover physical therapy. But powerful pain medicines? They will certainly cover those. Prescriptions for powerful pain killers doubled between 1994 and 2008 — and abuse skyrocketed as well. The grim headlines are all too familiar. Celebrities such as Whitney Houston die of overdoses. Teens mix legitimate medicines — and pay with their lives. Heavy-handed government attempts to crack down on pain and anxiety medications have terrorized doctors and pharmacists and left thousands of desperate people in severe pain.Prescription Drug Abuse shows how big the problem is: how it became a problem, what is being done about it, and what readers can do. The book shows the risks, the benefits, and the safe way to use some of modern healthcare’s most miraculous medicines.

    Long out-of-print yet often cited in psychedelic literature, THE BOOK OF SACRAMENTS, originally published in 1970, was a Holy book from the (now defunct) Church of the Tree of Life, established and incorporated by John Mann. A fundamental belief was that we have the right to alter our consciousness with plants extracts for medical, spiritual, and even recreational (re-creating) purposes.THE BOOK OF SACRAMENTS consists of introduction and discussion of several sacred plants, most still legal and easy to obtain, that have been used traditionally in religious (spiritual, consciousness expanding) rituals by native people.While the Church of the Tree of Life disbanded decades ago, the longing for a spiritual connection continues. One way to achieve such a connection with with the ritual use of magical plants. THE BOOK OF SACRAMENTS describes the ceremonial practices and rituals used by natives for thousands of years in some cases and gives guidelines for employing such practices in one's personal worship, including how to prepare the plant and oneself for the ritual.The mind has self-healing power. Spiritual experiences can lead to dramatic healing. Ritual is a method for organizing experience - mentally- and creating order around an inner experience to enable one to surrender to the experience without fear - due to the security provided by the repetitive and reliable ritual. The ritual helps to conjure up a frame of mind that is conducive to an ecstatic experience. When used properly ritual use of magical plants can open up new channels of awareness. The plants alone cannot bring about the desired results - the individual mind must be engaged.THE BOOK OF SACRAMENTS identifies over 20 magical plants for ritual use and tells how to prepare the potion and oneself for the journey and gives instructions for classic rituals as well as creating one's own variations. Finally it discusses how to process the experience afterwards to gain the maximum benefit from the journey.
